Is this course for you?

Do you have a passion for flowers and all things floral? Do you want to create works of art that are admired by others?

At Rodbaston College we have purpose-built floristry classrooms that exceed industry standards and allow you to develop and hone your skills in the best setting possible.

Fresh flowers are used every week to practise and perfect displays and creations, with some materials also being sourced from the estate gardens.

If you are looking to improve on existing skills or even if you are starting with little knowledge this course is a great steppingstone towards a career in floristry.
Required qualifications

Due to the part time nature of this course, no formal qualifications are required. However, a reasonable level of written and numeric ability will be discussed at interview.
What skills will I develop?

This course covers a wide variety of topics and skills based assessments that allows you to develop a greater understanding of both the practical element of a florists trade as well as understanding the wider opportunities and possibilities the industry offers.

A range of bouquets, displays and creations develop not only artistic interpretation but also cover the practical knowledge required to perfect such skills to the highest possible standard. There is also background knowledge to cover such as purchasing, marketing and sourcing creations and the costs involved.

This is a well rounded course balancing skills, knowledge and harnessing passion.

No specific uniform is required for the course, tools and equipment are provided.

"It has been a great experience learning how to create artificial designs and learning that there are different qualities of the material depending on how much you spend. Overall, I have found the course enjoyable.”
